Simple Woman's Daybook 9

FOR TODAY

Outside my window...it is dark and wet...the promise of snow was not to be!

I am thinking...that waking at 5:30 is just too early as I am feeling extra tired today!

I am thankful for...the support of my new colleagues! 


From the kitchen...I'm planning on recreating Bertucci's sausage soup recipe.  Thanks to my sister posting the recipe on FB.  I hope it is good.  


I am wearing....my jammies until I have to change.  I am hoping to go out and pick up some more 'hip' clothes this weekend so I look more professional at school. 

I am creating... thank you cards. 

 

I am going...to stay organized and enjoy my time in 4th grade.  It really is a great year!


I am wondering... what  the long comp practice will be like on Monday.  We shall see.

I am reading...Nothing still. :(  I'm in a bit of a reading slump unfortunately. Now that I'm done with PD for a while I can pick up something fun to read. 

I am hearing...the news and the dog.  


I am hoping...that I will be able to move into a full time teaching position next year. 


I am looking forward to...pizza for supper and the end to my first  full week in my new classroom.  


I am learning...how to get things done in school and leave the job there.  I hope I can be successful in these lessons. 

Around the house...I still feel the need to spring clean.  Maybe on Saturday while R is picking up some extra hours at work. 


A favorite quote for today... "Experience is not what happens to a man.  It is what a man does with what happens to him."  Aldous Huxley 

One of my favorite things...is window shopping with n.  This weekend we'll go beyond window shopping.   

A few plans for the rest of the week: thank you notes, planning for next week, pizza night, Vampire Diaries-just 3 more episodes till we are all caught up!  and shopping and movies with the kids this weekend - hopefully.   I'm also going to continue to say a lot of prayers for my friend who is fighting cancer.    Please if you are the spiritual type add my dear friend M to your prayers.  The prayers are working!  She is in her last week of treatment!  Now she has to let her body heal from the treatment.  Thank you for your prayers and thank God that she is seeing improvement. 

Peace!
